If you are new to Hockey or to Magrath and would like to talk to someone prior to registration please call Trevor Millward, President - 758-6585 for more information. If you plan on participating in hockey this year you must register at this time. THERE WILL BE NO LATE REGISTRATION. We need to know numbers this year for all levels but especially in PeeWee and above. If there are not enough players registered by September 6*, a decision will be made on September 9* to either join with Raymond Minor Hockey or Lethbridge Minor Hockey. (Which will mean more travel and higher registration costs). Due to the good response we received last year we will be staying in the Foothills League. Post-dated checks will be accepted at registration and will not be cashed until October 15, 2002. The fee schedule for the 2002-2003 season is shown below (the same as the past years - no increases). Also we are pleased to advise that there will be NO FUNDRAISING required. Anyone interested in Coaching or Assisting this season, is also encouraged to attend registration and to fill out an application. We strongly encourage your attention to this matter and hope to see you at registration.

CJGMG JOKG A man walking along a California beach stumbled across an old lamp. He picked it up, rubbed it, and out popped a genie. The genie said, "OK, OK. You released me from the lamp, blah, blah, blah. This is the fourth time this month! I'm getting sick of three wishes, so you can forget about it. You only get one wish!" The man thought, and said, "I’ve always wanted to go to Hawaii, but I’m scared to fly and I get seasick. Could you build me a bridge to Hawaii so I can drive there?” The genie said, "That's impossible. Think of the logistics! How would the supports reach the bottom of the Pacific? Think of haw much concrete and steel! No, think of another wish." The man said OK and thought hard. Finally, , he said, "I've been married and divorced four* times. My wives always said I don't care and that I'm insensitive. So I wish that I could understand women... know how they feel inside and what they're thinking when they give me the silent treatment... know why they're crying, what they really want when they say ‘nothing*... know how to make them truly happy..." The genie said, "You want that bridge two lanes or four?"
